Files with the JAR extension are files of archives compressed in the ZIP package, used by the JRE – Java Runtime Environment programming environment.
CAB is an installer archive file. Microsoft Windows uses many automated software installation tools which utilize CAB archives.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the JAR file after converting to CAB may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from JAR to CAB to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting JAR to CAB does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in JAR format, properly converted to a CAB file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file JAR the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of JAR file to other than CAB. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your JAR file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to CAB on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the JAR file in its original format (without conversion to CAB file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
